In reading this article survey, among 2052 primary and secondary school children reveals that cyberbullying among youngsters is not a marginal problems. Youngsters who have bullied someone via the internet or mobile phone during the last three months are younger, and are more often victims and bystanders of bullying via internet and more often the perpetrators of traditional bullying.
Regarding the age of the cyberbullies, there is no consensus: on the on hand ,some authors have found that older youngsters have an increased risk of cyberbullying compared to younger teens. This article research is from 2006 to 2009 this article is done in 2009 that recent information, the bullying takes place at school or in socila life etc, is likely to be continued in cyberspace ,with retentention of roles. I agree with tha article that concludes the respondents whose parents are less involved have a higher chance of becoming a cyberbullying. Informing parents about new media and encouraging them to be involved with their child 's internet use seems to be a logical step in the prevention of cyberbullying.
